Happy 4th... or 5th whatever.
Fourth of July weekend is going well for me so I felt I would drop you all a line here. Not many big things to report but I am enjoying my 4 day weekend. Gotten my self a little drunk the last two night leading to some entertaining evenings. The only problem with these nights is that all the females involved are married and thus off limits, so there is no ways to use my drunken honesty/ lack of inhibition to make any progress on the lack of girlfriend front. At least not without making things very complicated and bad, and I think we can all agree that path is best left unspoken.
Work continues to go well here at my new base. I love being back in the support section instead of out on the floor being a mechanic. It's much more suited to my talents and just a better situation. And the fact that I'm currently working on a four day weekend makes any work seem better, since one doesn't actually have to go there.
Not sure what else to report on so I shall make with the questions meme that I've participated in a couple times:
1. Leave me a comment asking for questions.
2. I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be asked, you will ask them five questions.
First my answers to
bladeforge's questions:
1) You're from Colorado: name the three University of Colorado campuses.
UCCS (University of Colorado Colorado Springs) and UC Boulder, not sure about the third
2) True or false: Alexander Rozhenko served on two vessels during the Dominion War: the Bird of Prey Rotarran and the battle cruiser Ya'Vang.
True, he did serve on both those ships, can't remember if he served on any others in addition.
3) Who is the current Chief Master Sergeant of the United States Air Force?
Don't know, probably should, but I don't care.
4) Johnathan Frakes, Diana Muldaur, and Cirroc Lofton all have birthdays in this month.
August?
5) Finally, fill in the blank: _______ Down
Man

macerio_dante's
1. Best thing about being in the Air Force?
Never underestimate the beauty of a steady pay check and stellar benefits.
2. What's one thing you *hated* about Carleton?
um... Money Hemorrage... and my freshmen year roommate.
3. Cutest thing your nephew has ever done?
As a two year old, going over and gently kissing his newborn brother on the forehead.
4. Name one person whose death would make the world a better place.
Bill Gates, If I were in his will as primary beneficiary.... but seriously I don't know, that's not a decision mortals should make. There are certain types of people that I feel should be eliminated, rapists, child molesters etc, but to name someone specific is a task I would not take on.
5. Holy crap! That weird ooze you walked in rather foolishly on your way to the corner mart somehow gave you a special power that's in keeping with your personality/traits/character. What is it and what do you do with it?
Telepathy, taking my already impressive emotional empathy to a further level. I would be able to broadcast and receive perfectly. Thus making me the perfect counselor and mediator. Instead of relying on language to communicate idea I would be able to read or project the idea directly to/from others peoples minds in it's raw form. Thus negating the confusion of possible misunderstanding. I could travel anywhere without needing to know the language because I could read the meanings directly. And this would make me an exceptional peacemaker because I could mediate a dispute by taking the exact ideas people are expressing and making the other side fully understand their position. I truly think the world could be made into a better place if misunderstanding were eliminated from important discusions, and I would set about doing that one negotiation at a time.
So, have at it people and see if I can come up with questions for you all....
